QM M8/M12 Series Metal Push Pull Connectors are high-performance waterproof circular connectors designed for industrial automation, outdoor equipment, smart manufacturing systems and harsh-environment device interfaces. Available in standard M8 and M12 sizes, the series supports 3, 4, 5, 8, 12 and 17 pin configurations for stable power, signal and control transmission.
A key feature of this series is the straight floating female interface, which helps compensate for installation deviations during assembly. This makes the M8/M12 series especially useful for industrial equipment, automation modules and field devices where connector alignment, on-site installation efficiency and long-term connection stability are important.
With IP68 waterproof protection when locked, 75dB shielding effectiveness, salt spray resistance, wide temperature adaptability, gold-plated contacts and corrosion-resistant metal housing, QM M8/M12 connectors provide durable and reliable performance in industrial, outdoor, marine, automotive, aerospace testing and medical device applications.
